Chapter 14 – Tons Of Family Fun

"You're a hit with my family." Seth murmured in her ear and kissed her neck, guiding her around to show her around the house.

Kali smiled softly as Seth guided her to his old bedroom. Her eyes flittered around and took in all the old WWF memorabilia Seth had on his walls and shelves. "So you've always wanted to be a wrestler?" She asked softly as she looked around the room. She watched as he nodded. She stopped in front of a photo of Seth in his ring gear from his Ring of Honor days. Her hand reached out and her index finger traced the picture frame. "You look so different with your hair all one color and not in the riot gear. It almost seems like it's not you." She turned and noticed he was sitting on the foot of his bed as she walked over standing in front of him, she wrapped her arms around his neck as she played with the bun at the nape of his neck. "I'm really glad you're family likes me. I'm sorry I was so nervous." She leaned over and kissed his lips softly.

Smiling against her lips, Seth pulled back as he ran a finger down her cheek, chocolate eyes glittering. "You have no idea what that means to me to hear you say that, Kali. Because I want you in my life. And since my family approves of you, that makes me just want you even more." His hands slid down her sides up and down soothingly, pulling her to straddle his lap on his old bed as their foreheads met. No matter what it took, Seth would bring back the old Kali for not only him, but for her and Nick as well. He would give her all the happiness in the world and protect her with everything inside of him. "You're doing great. I just hope you're ready for Mom to fatten you up because she'll think you're not eating enough. Don't worry though, that's just how Mom is."

Kali giggled. "Your mom can try to fatten me up but I don't think it will work. I can eat more than Nick and stay the same size." Their foreheads were still together as her fingernails were subconsciously sliding up and down his biceps, it was just a caress. She loved touching him and kissing him and sleeping in his arms. "I never feel safer than when I am with you. Even when I don't need to feel safe; I always do. I think that's why I trusted you so fast that first night when you took me to the trainers; I just had a sense of security and safety. I know you pretty much beat yourself up over it because Nick told me, but I still don't blame you." She kissed his right cheek, then his left then his forehead, nose, chin and finally lips. "I want you in my life too. You already passed Nicky's test and he's pretty much the only one who you need approval from." She felt him pull her closer to him if that was possible. She smiled as she softly kissed the side of his neck she could feel his pulse race against the tip of her tongue as she kissed it softly.

"Looks like we both got the approvals we needed." Seth rumbled, his voice dropping an octave as she teased and tormented his neck. He couldn't help getting lost in the moment and suddenly lifted her up, planting her on the bed on her back as he hovered over her. His mouth sealed to hers temporarily and then moved down to her neck, his hand sliding down her side to squeeze her outer thigh. The feeling of her writhing beneath him lit Seth's blood on fire and he felt himself slowly losing control. Kali's moans spilled from her mouth as he continued teasing her neck with his lips and tongue, flicking the sweet spot just below her ear. It was slow, sensual and made both of their bodies burn for the other. "Make me stop." He whispered, his mouth hovering over her ear as his hand began sliding her dress up slightly. "Christ you feel so fucking good, beautiful…"

Kali was glad her jean dress was made of stretchy jean material as it slid up her thighs when Seth slipped between her legs cradled between her inner thighs. The heels of her boots were pressed to the comforter covering the bed. His lips kissed along her neck and she couldn't help the moan that escaped. "Seth…" She felt his hand slide to the top of her dress as he started slowly unbuttoning it and his lips were following the material as it opened inch by inch. When he all but begged her to make him stop she couldn't do it. She shook her head slowly. "I don't want you to stop. I trust everything about you Seth. I know you'd never hurt me." She was serious. She knew he would NEVER hurt her.

"Seth, you need to come back down here and stop hiding your lovely girlfriend!"

Seth groaned from low in his throat, the passion haze disappearing from his head as it began clearing. He stared down at a breathless looking Kali and immediately closed his eyes, regret and guilt crashing over him. Shit. What the hell was he thinking attacking her like this? "Sorry." He mumbled, pulling away from her instantly and put some space between them. He'd unbuttoned her dress and was ready to take her right in his parent's house in his own room. Had he completely lost his mind? "Come on beautiful, time to go downstairs." He took her hand once she was straightened out and guided her back to where his family awaited.

Kali fixed her dress and frowned when Seth said he was sorry. Had she done something wrong? When he pushed away from her it was almost like he couldn't get away fast enough. Ouch – that hurt. Seth grabbed her hand as he led her back downstairs with everyone else. She chewed her bottom lip as they walked through the house and out to the back yard where there was two tables connected. She knew she was going to have to talk to Seth about the sex issue. Bryan's fiancé Tammy was there and she immediately walked up and enveloped her into a hug before pulling her away from Seth. Her eyes looked back at him, before she turned her attention back to Tammy as she pulled her over to sit by Bryan and herself.

"C'mon girl, you can come over here since I know the uncles are going to get louder." Tammy laughed. She knew Kali had shyness issues from what Bryan and Byron had told her. "You can come sit at the quiet end with Joanna and I." Joanna was Byron's fiancé.

Kali smiled softly. "Thanks." She really did appreciate Bryan's and Byron's fiancés.

Stupid, stupid, stupid – that's all Seth kept calling himself as he watched Kali Joanna, and Tammy laugh together, glad they got along. Bryan was a lucky man because Tammy was an absolute sweetheart, kind to everyone. Bryan was currently wrestling for TNA and Tammy was a TNA Knockout; which was the equivalent to the WWE Divas. He was thankful for that because honestly, when Seth first found out his cousin was dating a TNA Knockout, he flat out warned Bryan to stay away from her; he'd heard bad stories about the TNA girls. But the heart wanted what the heart wanted.

He smiled when Kali looked over at him, waving three fingers and Seth thought that was the most adorable thing he'd ever seen. She was beautiful from head to toe, her beautiful dark honey blonde hair pooling down her back over her shoulders. He had a serious problem on his hands and hoped he could figure out what to do about it before he ended up screwing things up with Kali again.

Kali sat through dinner with everyone. Seth's family would definitely take some getting used to. He had a big loud family and when everyone was there they were twice as loud. She could see Seth battling out something in his head. Yea they were definitely going to have to talk once they got back to the hotel that night. He had been acting strange ever since they'd left his childhood bedroom and he just seemed to be getting more introverted with her.

By the time desert rolled around everyone had gone with the exception of immediate family only; Seth's brothers, Tammy, Joanna and his parents. She sat eating the caramel ice cream sundae that Alicia had made for everyone for desert. Seth was sitting next to her with a strawberry one and Kali smiled softly as she lifted a spoonful of the caramel one to his mouth and laughed when he took it and groaned as the caramel hit his tongue.

Seth couldn't help groaning because caramel was one of his favorite dessert toppings. Not to mention he was getting some pretty XXX rated thoughts about how he could use caramel on Kali's body. Lord, what the hell was he going to do about this? Using his hand was the only option because he flat out refused to rush Kali into anything. He laughed at his brothers antics when they began flinging ice cream at each other across the table. Tammy and Joanna joined in the fun and pretty soon Alicia demanded all of them to go outside to rinse off the ice cream.

James decided he couldn't let his little brother go without being pelted and got Seth right in the eye, laughing his ass off. Seth responded by picking up his bowl of ice cream, walking over and dumping the WHOLE bowl on top of James's head.

"My goodness…" Alicia stifled a chuckle.

"LITTLE BRO!"

"Serves you right!" Seth flew out the back door and jumped into the pool fully clothed, refusing to be pelted by anymore food. Pretty soon, James, the twins Joanna and Tammy joined the fun.

Kali laughed as she walked outside with her cell phone and started taking pictures and videos of the six people in the pool. It was a good thing she'd taken her boots off before they had dinner. The rock that surrounded the pool was slightly slippery when it got wet.

Everyone else was barefoot she might as well join the group. She laughed as Byron got out of the pool and was mugging for the camera as she continued to take the videos of the very loud very big family. Her eyes widened as Byron asked to see her phone and he took it and put it on the picnic table near the pool under a towel with everyone else's phones before he ran back over and picked her up and jumped in the pool with her shrieking along the way. When Byron broke the surface, Kali was holding on to him as she smacked his chest while giggling. "Freaking Brute!"

"BYRON!" Seth growled, chocolate eyes wide and immediately relaxed when he heard Kali's giggling. Her full-fledged giggling. He'd never heard it before because she'd always been quiet. The sound was pure angelic, the most beautiful thing he ever heard in his life. Seth immediately swam over to her, trying to ignore the fact her jean dress was now clinging to every curve of her body, including her full breasts.

There his mind went in the gutter again!

He knew his brothers were trying to help pull her the rest of the way out of her shell; after the twins met her a few weeks ago they started asking Seth about why she was so quiet; in not so many words he just told them she'd had a bad experience and it had scarred her. Listening to her giggle; he'd never be able to repay his brothers enough. was Seth already knew he was falling in love with Kali and brushed his lips against her forehead as they got lost in each other's eyes.

"Are you okay?" He asked softly, running a finger down her cheek and felt his heart skip a beat when she flashed a heart stopping smile at him. This woman was going to be the death of him.

Kali smiled. "I'm okay; don't be too rough on Byron. It was fun. I haven't had fun like this in a while." She wrapped her arms around his shoulders pressing her soaking body against his as she pressed her lips to his softly. "Loosen up a little Ninja." Kali winked before she was unceremoniously yanked from Seth's arms and pulled against a solid chest.

"Okay you guys can't be over in the corner playing kissy face the whole time. That defeats the purpose of being in the pool." Byron reasoned.

Kali giggled. "I'm so glad we agree on something Byron." She turned around in his arms as she kissed his cheek and before he knew what happened she shoved his head underwater. "Paybacks are a bitch." She giggled out.

Seth laughed along with her, jumping back to backstroke in the water staring up at the beautiful sky. Byron had no idea what he was doing because the sound of her giggles and laughter was pure music to Seth's ears. He heard her squealing out again and looked up, seeing Byron had her over his shoulders twirling around in the water. Then Bryan joined in the fun and took her away, basically water dancing between her and Tammy. Seth shook his head and swam over, taking Kali from Bryan the same time Tammy was handed to Bryan. Seth held her princess style and leaned her head back as he slowly twirled her in the water, kissing her softly. "Having fun?" He rumbled, pulling her up to straddle his lap as he started backstroking in the water.

Kali nodded. The sun had gone down and there was a slight breeze in the air and she shivered a bit. "So much fun. It's been a while since I've had this much fun in a pool." She was about to say something else when Seth swam by James and was suddenly pulled from Seth with a squeak.

James smirked and was waiting for the perfect time. "OH! Older brother steals younger brother's girl!" Byron grabbed Kali and took off across the pool.

Kali giggled as she was placed on James back and she held on for dear life.

"Damn bro! Our brother stole your girl." Byron chuckled from his seated position on the pools edge with Joanna next to him.

"Not for long." Seth dived under water and used his muscular legs and arms to quickly get over to where James was. Growling, Seth plucked Kali from his back, set her gently on the edge of the pool and then dunked James head under water. Kali immediately got involved and pretty soon Seth was being tag teamed by his brother's, all of them yelling out. Tammy and Joanna joined in the may lay, pulling Kali away to dunk him and Seth got the upper hand on James, putting him in a chicken wing submission hold. Dean taught him this one. He lifted James and sent him face first into the pool, laughing as his body crashed against the wall with a hard smack.

Kali's eyes widened as her hands covered her mouth. "Oh my goodness; be careful Seth!" Her feet were still in the water as she sat on the pool edge. She smiled up at Seth's mom when she came by and wrapped a towel around her and kissed the top of her head. "Thank You Mrs. Rollins."

"You guys it's too late to be in that pool and the breeze is kicking up. I don't need to be responsible for any of you getting pneumonia." Ally warned her boys. "Seth you need to get out of there and get Kali to the hotel before she freezes to death. She doesn't need to be traveling with a cold; she'll be miserable."

"Yes Mom." Seth grumbled good-naturedly, winking over at Kali and pulled himself out of the pool, both of them completely drenched. "She's right, I don't want you getting sick. Come on, there's some clothes upstairs you can change into that she keeps just in case." He kissed the top of her head and lifted her up in his strong arms princess style, carrying her into the house.

Once upstairs in his childhood room, Seth took the towel and proceeded to towel-dry Kali's hair while she began unbuttoning her dress. "I-I'll just wait outside." He muttered, cursing his stammering because the moment her hands went to those buttons again, Seth had the animalistic urge pulse through him again. He had to get out of the room now before he pounced. There could be no pouncing, not this soon.

Kali giggled as she heard Seth's stuttering and left the room. She peeled her dress off as she saw the black cotton pants and the white t-shirt. She ended up leaving her panties and bra on and once they got back to the hotel she would change into dry panties and bra and give all the wet clothes to the hotel laundry. Once she was dressed in Lisa's (Seth's sister who barely came home now a day's) clothes she opened the door and smiled softly at him. "You didn't have to leave Seth. I didn't get completely naked." She pushed up on her toes and kissed his lips softly. "When we get back to the hotel, I think we really need to have a talk." As she turned and walked down the stairs with her dress in a plastic bag that Seth's mom gave her.

Groaning, Seth banged his head against the wall repeatedly, not too hard though because he didn't want to leave a bruise on his forehead. What did she mean they had to have a talk? She was going to break up with him. That's exactly what it meant. She didn't appreciate how animalistic and passionate he'd been earlier and now he was going to lose her. Seth felt sick to his stomach, taking a few deep breaths to slow his racing heart and headed downstairs. He was shocked that Kali hadn't flown out the door like her ass was on fire, but maybe she'd stayed to be a good sport toward his family. "Mom, we're gonna get going." Seth stated from behind, not surprised to see all the containers full of food; the hotel had a mini fridge and a microwave they were sent for their few days stay. "Thanks for everything." He hugged her tightly, kissing the top of her head and chuckled when she swatted him on his arm.

"Be good to her, Seth and don't be a stranger. Don't be hiding her either. Don't forget tomorrow night is movie night we'll have tons of popcorn be here by 6."

"Yes ma'am. We won't be late." Seth stated as his heart clenched painfully in his chest and all he could do was nod, knowing it would break his mother's heart when he had to tell her Kali broke up with him. They left the house and drove back to his place, both silent the whole ride.
